OCZ PC3200 Platinum 2Gb Dual Channel DDR Kit

     It was just a year or two ago when we wondered what it would be like to have 1 full gig of memory in our desktop systems. Now 1gb of memory is pretty common, especially in gaming systems. But what if were to double that? I'm talking about two 1gb sticks of DDR running in Dual Channel goodness! Not the ECC stuff for servers, regular non ECC RAM for desktop systems. Well, this year we are seeing the 1gb sticks of DDR pop up around the net. They are not exactly cheap, but they are finally available in quantity. OCZ has stepped up to the plate and is now offering 1gb sticks of memory. I have to say I was pretty happy the day a pair of 1gb memory sticks showed up in the mail! 2gigs of memory...Sounds crazy, but fun! Let's get to it!

Specifications

     Because this memory is fresh off the press, it hasn't even been publicly released yet. Very little is known about this stuff, and most of what we do know is suppressed under a NDA (non disclosure agreement). What we can tell you is this new RAM features what OCZ is calling "EB Technology". Enhanced Bandwidth (EB) technology is a means of increasing memory bandwidth through optimization of memory latencies for the best possible interaction of the system memory with the chipset and memory controller. Through thorough analysis of memory traffic and benchmark results under various operating conditions as defined by different memory latency settings.
